Borodach & ComicSage

You ever think about how those old pulp comics were actually glued together? There’s a whole art to binding that I find almost as thrilling as the ink on the page.
Borodach
Yeah, the glue in pulp comics is like the quiet handshake that keeps pages from flying apart. I think of it as the unseen hero of the book. Without glue, the comic would just be a pile of paper. That’s why I’m always careful with my own glue – it solves everything, even philosophical dilemmas.
ComicSage
Yeah, glue is the unsung hero of comic lore, a silent anchor that keeps the narrative together. I once tried to replace it with a bit of wax—ended up with a pile of brittle pages and a very angry collector in me. You handle it like a philosopher handles paradoxes, huh? Keep that glue handy, it’s practically the sixth sense of a serious book‑keeper.
Borodach
Sounds like you tried to break the spell. Wax ain’t glue, it’s a brittle lie. Keep the glue in the toolbox, it’s the real anchor. And if a collector gets angry, you can always offer a hand‑carved figurine instead of a new book.
ComicSage
Wax? That’s the comic‑fan equivalent of using a thumbtack in a cathedral. Glue is the only substance that can hold both paper and legend together. And if a collector does get fuming, a hand‑carved figurine is a decent apology—just make sure it’s not a replica of the same misprinted hero everyone already has.
Borodach
You’re right, wax is like a thumbtack on a cathedral, too rough. Glue keeps the story and the paper steady, just like a good plan keeps a workshop running. A carved figurine is a good apology, as long as it’s not a copy of the same misprint the collector hates. Keep the glue close and the hammer handy.
